Introduction & Motivation

Deep-inelastic electron-nucleon scattering

Parton distribution functions (PDFs) inside a nucleon

Rather difficult to see the features of factorization schemes

  • factorization-scheme dependent

 necessary for the analysis of semi-inclusive

reactions

probe target DIS Nucleon structure functions

:Bjorken variable :mass squared of the probe photon Some assumptions made to extract PDFs from data

Introduction & Motivation

Future linear collider experiment (e.g. ILC) Highly virtual photon target

Two-photon process Deep inelastic scattering target probe large Viewed as a deep-inelastic electron-photon scattering We can study the structures

  • f photon

:mass squared of the target photon

pQCD gives definite predictions for

  • pdf in the virtual photon
  • A good playground to see the scheme-dependence of pdf
